Aidan Nichols

Light from the East (eBook, PDF)

Authors and Themes in Orthodox Theology

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

'An excellent introduction for those unfamiliar with this Eastern Light, and a stimulating read for those already engaged in exploration and dialogue.' - Priests and People

Aidan Nichols has two main objectives: first, to identify a variety of dogmatic issues raised or discussed by Eastern Orthodox theologians, but of equal importance to Catholic theology; and secondly, to discover through a study of modern Orthodox dogmatic theologians, the character of the Eastern Orthodox tradition.

Writing as a Catholic theologian himself, Fr Nichols makes an important ecumenical contribution by offering this study of one tradition from the standpoint of another.
